Toxic Liberalism and Poison Politics
“… for their folly shall be manifest to all …” (2 Timothy 3:9).
While liberals, leftists, and their political party, the Democrats, speak about being progressive, fair, and open-minded, a perusal of recent events proves it’s a case of toxic liberalism and poison politics.
The Left has repeatedly shown itself to be savage and violent, and anything but open-minded. Physical violence, sweeping and destructive reforms shoved down our throats by draconian legislation, mass protests, insults and intimidation, are all in its arsenal for pushing through change. Maxine Waters, the scowling shadow demon of California Democrats, has urged people to follow and harass Trump supporters, wherever they are, “and you tell them that they are not welcome, anymore, anywhere!”
When Leftists Get Into Office Freedom Suffers
Bill Whatcott has been fined by a Canadian tribunal $55,000 for the “crime” of “misgendering.” He called a biological male, who decided to identify as female, a male. John Carpay, president of the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedom, who defended Whatcott, said, “The Supreme Court of Canada has long held that freedom of expression is the lifeblood of democracy.” Obviously, when it crosses the lines created by transgender activism, freedom dies. Carpay added, “Society is full of people with diverse views, and the tribunals’ decision undermines the foundational principles of the free society and jeopardizes the health of Canada’s democracy.”
Whatcott’s so-called “crime” is still considered legal in the U.S. But for how long? We are already seeing non-governmental censorship regarding gay-related issues on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. Facebook and Instagram are blocking pro-life posts by Dr. Alveda King, who is trying to prevent more “black genocide” through the new Roe v. Wade film.
Violence At Abortion Clinics
An 85-year-old pro-lifer was beaten while he was praying outside of a Planned Parenthood clinic in San Francisco. “Old man, stay on the ground,” the thug said. Investigators say the suspect snatched a banner the pro-lifer was holding and tried to run with it. The man used his cane and tried to stop the assailant.
“I tried to keep him from taking it and that was it,” the victim told NBC News. “Then he knocked me down and kicked me.” The attack was captured on video.
The victim is a member of 40 Days For Life, a pro-life advocacy group that conducts silent prayer demonstrations outside Planned Parenthood clinics. This was the third time the suspect has harassed and bullied pro-lifers at the San Francisco clinic. The victim was treated for minor injuries.
There are other cases of pro-lifers being attacked. In fact, anyone associated with conservative values is a target, especially those who wear the red MAGA—Make America Great Again—hat. A 74-year-old man in Palo Alto, California, experienced ridicule and mockery from Rebecca Parker Mankey, who saw the man’s MAGA hat and shouted out, “Hey everybody! Come over here! Let’s get this guy! He’s a hater! I’m calling him out! He hates brown people. He’s a Nazi!” On Twitter she wrote, “I’m going to go to his house, march up and down carrying a sign that says he hates black people. …”
Dr. Chuck McIlhenny
Dr. Chuck McIlhenny pastored First Orthodox Presbyterian Church for several years. In 1978 he wrote a book in which he recounted how he was threatened and his church and home firebombed by gay activists following a lawsuit he won regarding the church’s right to dismiss its organist who was gay. McIlhenny’s home was firebombed while his family was sleeping inside. No one was ever prosecuted for the arson attack. The title of Dr. McIlhenny’s 1978 book recounting his experiences with gay militancy is titled When the Wicked Seize a City.
In 1978, McIlhenny helped defeat a domestic partnership law that would have treated two homosexuals as a family. For three years, the McIlhenny household received literally thousands of threatening and harassing phone calls 24 hours a day. Some of the callers threatened to sodomize and kill Dr. McIlhenny’s three young daughters. In 1990, vandalism repeatedly occurred to his church and home. Nasty graffiti was written on the walls. In addition, the church’s windows were broken on a regular basis. The windows were permanently boarded up by congregational vote.
The tragic, but revealing, documentary film, A Nation Adrift, chronicles the outrageous events that took place during the Hamilton Square Baptist Church riot in 1992. An angry group of homosexuals and lesbians, who objected to the speaker for that service, vandalized church property, assaulted church members, terrorized congregants, screamed profanity, threw rocks, harassed and frightened children, and disrupted the service. Rioters pounded on church doors and attempted to break through. When the rioters saw church children standing in the lobby, they shouted, “We want your children. Give us your children!”
Lot experienced some of the same lustful aggressiveness in Genesis 19. Even after these homosexuals were struck blind by the angel, “they wearied themselves to find the door” (vs. 11). Rather than fleeing from a devastating angelic encounter, these crazed men were still looking to sodomize the angels!
Interestingly, those of us who say that militant homosexual activism is a danger to liberty are accused of suffering from “homophobia,” and “transphobia.” These labels are misleading. A “phobia” is described as an “unreasonable,” “irrational” fear of something. There is nothing unreasonable or irrational in the real danger that we face. Homosexual activism is seeking to radically change America. I have given several examples of it. I could give many more.
News Without Reference To Facts, Logic Or Proof
This militant gay takeover has been following a well-orchestrated, carefully designed plan for years. In the 1989 book, After The Ball, which presents the battle plan for the takeover of America, authors Kirk and Madsen talk about converting the public to accept homosexuality. “We mean … conversion of the average American’s emotions, mind, and will, through a planned psychological attack, in the form of propaganda fed to the nation via the media. … Our effect is achieved without reference to facts, logic or proof.”
Indeed a lot of the anti-Trump news is fake because it is reported “without reference to facts, logic or proof.” When referring to the savagery of MS-13 killers, the president said they are “animals.”
Nancy Pelosi gave the president’s statement a spin to make him look like a “hater of brown people.” Pelosi said, “When the President of the United States says about undocumented immigrants, ‘These aren’t people; these are animals,’ you have to wonder—Does he not believe in the spark of divinity—the dignity and worth of every person?” (Of course, “the dignity and worth of every person” means she should be pro-life, which she is not.)
Others in the Democrat-backed media ran with this distortion and wrote, “Asylum seekers ‘aren’t people.’ They are ‘animals.’ This is particularly frightening language coming out of a person vested with the power of the president’s office.” CNN contributed its own toxic news and posted a photo of a little boy seeking asylum in the United States and wrote, “His name is William. Trump calls him an animal.”
The Coming Plague: “Leather Awareness” Weekend In Cleveland
Amy Contrada, writing for American Thinker (5/18/18), warns her readers before they read her article titled “What Has Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Wrought?” At the top of the page we read, “CAUTION: This article contains extremely graphic and disturbing content. Read at your own risk, and keep out of reach of children.”
The last weekend in April is a CLAW weekend—Cleveland Leather Awareness Weekend. In the last decade, there has been an explosion of “gay” BDSM (bondage, domination, sadism, and masochism) festivals (nice way of saying deviant sex “orgies”). These are activities that leave blood and other disease-laden body fluids. There are several “workshops” planned which I will not even attempt to describe. Linda Harvey, writing for WND, states: “It is so thoroughly disgusting that it’s difficult to understand how any civilized city can host this. How can respectable hotels accommodate such activities?” The hotels involved this year are the Cleveland Westin, Cleveland Marriott, Aloft, and Hampton Inn.
BDSM research reveals that BDSM participants have a high rate of mental disorders (25% have attempted suicide; about 40% suffer from severe anxiety and depression), twice the incidence of Hepatitis C, and ten times the incidence of HIV/AIDS as the general population. Believe it or not, major corporations are knowingly allowing their hotels to become public health hazards—both for the event participants and the innocent guests who follow. These hotels will never really be “safe” again. After the orgies are over, you may attend a corporate luncheon in the same room. Travelers beware. The Cleveland Department of Health is evidently okay with this.
Despite the dismal news from certain quarters, and the refusal of frozen-chosen believers whose theology leads them to believe that all of this is inevitable, God’s people are at work. Even more importantly, God is at work.
We always need to fall back on that great truth articulated by the prophet Jahaziel, “Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s” (2 Chron. 20:15).
